“As Dortmund manager, I lived in a street, and my two neighbours were Schalke fans. They showed it every day, flying flags!”

I like learning more about people; I like to talk to people.

The best football is always about expression of emotion. Always.

Crazy players love me. I don’t know why.

It’s a rule to give all, and it can make the difference if you work more. If you don’t have to give all, and you still win, what’s this?

I don’t want to spend money the club doesn’t have; I don’t want to hold a player that doesn’t want to stay.

I’m not sure what you need first – the players believing or others believing in them – but in the end, both have to think it.

Winning the title in England is the biggest challenge of them all.

We should play free football, defend lively with a passion, and have the best understanding in offence.

To be successful, you need results in a row. You can’t win, lose, win, lose.

I’m not a genius. I need other people to get the perfect information. When we have this, we will decide to sign or sell a player.

To win is always good for the feeling of the whole team.

It’s not about changing people; it’s sometimes about changing a situation. How can we build an even better situation for them?

In Dortmund, they say the derby is more important than the championship. You can feel it around the game.

The only thing I can say is that I like people; I like human beings with their faults and with their strengths.

Shinji Kagawa is one of the best players in the world, and he now plays 20 minutes at Manchester United – on the left wing!

When I started analysing games in 2001, I had a DVD recorder.

No burden is so heavy for a man to bear as a succession of happy days.

And I’m afraid, in this day and age, trust, which I count so, you know, I love loyalty. I love trust.

Every day in the mirror I watch death at work.

At the end of the day, if you feel like you’re a good person, and your intentions are good, then that’s all that matters.

I have a lot of money stashed away, but I do live my life from day to day.

We have become ninety-nine percent money mad. The method of living at home modestly and within our income, laying a little by systematically for the proverbial rainy day which is due to come, can almost be listed among the lost arts.

My only home are the daydreams I dream.

He that hath light within their own breast, may sit in the centre and enjoy bright day.
